Dance Performance | Historic Dance Show Recreated with Dancers & Visual Arts


The Jerome Robbins Dance Division at the Library for the Performing Arts preserves Elaine Summers' archive. In honor of the Library's 60th anniversary, organizers celebrate Summers during her centennial birth year with a recreation of her 2007 performance, Hidden Forest. The centennial performance of Hidden Forest incorporates eight dancers with musicians, composers, visual artists, and visual projections, which come from another intermedia piece by Summers. Hidden Forest is inspired by Dante's quote--"in the midst of the journey of life I came upon a dark forest, where the path was lost." Dancer, choreographer, and intermedia artist Elaine Summers was a major pioneer exploring the meeting of dance and film, melding the two into a seamless whole which she referred to as "intermedia." This recreation of Hidden Forest is directed by Frances Becker and assisted by the Artistic Estate of Elaine Summers. Seating is first-come first-served. Just show up!
